Abstract

The renaissance of humanist Leninist values and ideals of socialism is the principal goal of the revolutionary renewal of our society. It was not in vain that an orientation toward man was defined at the Nineteenth All-Union Conference of the CPSU as the prime, most important feature of socialism's countenance: "We see socialism as a system of true, real humanism, in which man is in fact the ‘measure of all things.’ The whole of the development of a society, from its economy to its intellectual and ideological sphere, is directed toward the satisfaction of human needs and man's all-round development. All these things, moreover, are accomplished through the labor, the creativity, and the energy of people themselves."
